[Juvenile occlusion syndrome of the inferior vena cava with left renal deficiency].
In three juvenile patients, one female and two males aged 14 to 21 years, there were recent deep vein thromboses of the lower limbs due to previous infrahepatic occlusion of the inferior vena cava associated with a shrunken left kidney without clinical manifestation of a nephrotic syndrome. Possible reasons and impacts of this probably congenital peculiar vascular syndrome are discussed. Radiodiagnostic management in juvenile patients with recurrent venous thromboses of the lower part of the body is explained with special respect to secondary phenomena of other retroperitoneal organs like adrenals, inner pelvis and testicles.
